And Ive heard girdles are for strength too. Seems like this week you just cant type anything that I dont disagree with. (And yes that was a proper double negative. Suck that high school language arts teachers.)

not yet. Still tracking down wiring issues. But i was having head gaskets issues on the stock engine (which is part of the reason i pulled it and rebuilt it)
Like i said, girdles help for keeping your shit together when it breaks. Jeff (cobra912) snapped a rod at only 550rwhp (forged btw) and it launched out of the car and just about cut the block in half.
I have a girdle on the spare motor with forged internals, the sbf tends to crack at the front of the block near the cam. There's just not enough material in the block to keep it from going, the caps are small, the crank it 75% exposed its a wonder the block even hols the power it can
